Subject: Wishlist: Rename NO_NETWORK_TESTING to NETWORK_TESTING?
To be more consistent with the other *_TESTING envs, perhaps the negative NO_ can be replaced with a positive? The default of true can still be assumed with e.g. ----- sub is_false { # defined and false defined($_[0]) && !$_[0]; } do_network_testing unless is_false("NETWORK_TESTING"); ----- To turn off network testing, instead of setting NO_NETWORK_TESTING=1, we can set NETWORK_TESTING=0. Regards, Steven

There was a fairly lengthy email thread about this topic on cpan-workers http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.workers/2014/06/msg1117.html which addresses this topic. My sense was the preference was toward a NO_NETWORK_TESTING environment variable.
